The project of the informational system creation on the problem of evolution of radio galaxies, as a part of the "Big Trio" project aimed on studing of distant radio galaxies, is designed. This system allows a user to operate with simulated curves of spectral energy distributions (SED) to estimate ages and redshifts by photometry data. Authors use SEDs of several models for different types of galaxies. ... The HTTP and e-mail access is organized to this system. ...

... Previous: Residual Bias Removal in HST NICMOS Images . ... Bias frames taken with CCDs should be homogeneous in intensity. ... Using a large number of bias frames obtained in one specific run, the time-dependent pattern was found to be built up of a fixed one-dimensional periodic function whose phase-shift varies from row to row. It was successfully removed from calibration and science frames through the use of pre- and upscan ``bias'' pixels available in each of these frames. ...

We have designed the laboratory model of static Fourier spectrometer for onboard usage for spectral study of atmosphere and ionosphere. The gain of model is to simulate onboard FS which will not have any moving elements (all its optical elements will be mounted at fused quartz monolithic construction), to compare experimental results with theoretical estimations and to measure MTF of CCD array. ... This fact connected with low frequency response of CCD array due to small format of it. ...
